A few hours early, but not sure if I will have time tomorrow so say it in my blog. Happy Thanksgiving. Hope you are having fun, scarfing down some good eats, and drinking yourself into oblivion(haha). Oh and watching football as well!!

New Course...must go...
So plans have been made for me and Ruben(brother-in-law)to go check out the new placerville disc golf course this saturday. They have had a small little 9-hole'r for awhile but they built a new 18 basket course right on Finnion Lake and the description sounds pretty nice. Hopefully we can get a big group but with it being a holiday weekend, lots of people are going to have family and other comittments, which is understandable. So if me and Ruben have to be the scouts to go check it out and give our feedback to the other regulars then so be it.
In case you guys didn't know http://www.deepdiscount.com/ is always a great place to buy dvds(and other stuff) online, but it is even better now because they are offering free shipping and are having a promo sale. Just type in "dvdtalk" when you go to checkout and it takes I think 20% off. Place your orders for Christmas fast though cause I am not sure how long either promo lasts....haha, wow that sounded like a goddamn commercial. (If only I got paid for it)
So here is a pic of a new disc I got my hands on courtesy of big mike. It's an Innova Starmax, and it's a tad heavier then the SL I have. (175 compared with 171). I have been using a Star SL for awhile now and it has done me good, but I always like to try out new discs every so often just to see how they effect my game whether it is positive or negative, or if I happen to come upon a disc that is great for certain conditions........Take a look....

Employed.....
Yes, I am back to work. I have been for about a week and a half now. Not my ideal job and I am driving a little further then I would like to but hey, it was nice only being out of work for a week before getting a paycheck again.
I am still filling out applications and applying to "good" jobs because that is my goal. I saw some openings for Yolo County Court Clerk(s) that looks appealing, and I have all the necessary education/experience/skills. Hopefully I get that as the pay starts out pretty decent.
It's almost Thanksgiving and for the first time in a few years I will be making multiple stops, (2). Good thing both places are within a mile of each other. I am trying to talk Jen into making a homeade sweet potato pie this year cause I really like them and have never had one homemade. For Christmas she is making the homemade eggnog w/rum which is fucking amazing. I can't wait.....Ack, Christmas? So Soon? I don't even wanna think about that shit yet......

Finding a job......
So I haven't blogged too much lately because I am searching for a good job and that is taking most of my time.....I think I may have found one. I was called for a data entry job by an employment agency and passed all the tests with flying colors and did a successful interview. So after eating lunch and heading home, I get a call back saying they have another available position with that company's sister company and I wouldn't even have to interview. So I said "ok" so they are passing my resume along to them and if they say I'm qualified, then I could be starting tomorrow or the next day(since tomorrow is technically a holiday)!
Wish me luck, this would be a good job with a good company that has longevity and potential for a lot of growth. This would be such a positive turn around compared to the situation I was in before.
